In the high-paced bustle of daily life, it can be difficult to schedule and attend appointments for in-person care with your doctors. To solve this issue, there has been an increasing demand for online services in the medical field. However, it comes with great risk, as online services truly cannot replace the value of the in-person practitioner.

"Online vision tests, while marketed as convenient, are no replacement for in-person care. They fail to fully cover any of the 12 essential exam components and can lead to inaccurate prescriptions or missed diagnoses of serious conditions like glaucoma, diabetes, hypertension cataracts and macular degeneration." - Jeffrey Sonsino, O.D., FAAO

Aspex Eyewear is looking good! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

The third company featured at our frame show is Aspex Eyewear. They are well-known for their Cargo and Takumi brands, which feature sunclips that attach to the face of the frame, providing sun protection in a fashionable way.

They also have the Divaldi frame line, notable for their unique and stylish designs. Another stunning characteristic about some Aspex frames are their Turboflex hinges, which boast 360 degree rotation in any direction.

We appreciate our representative, Julie Reib, for all that she does for our office! We are grateful for her coming out to showcase these amazing brands for our patients.

The event is scheduled for 3pm to 7pm on Tuesday, October 28th. See our pinned posts for more details. We hope to see you there! ๐Ÿฅ‚
